Who's has BMR drag bags, What d'ya think?

This is a discussion on Who's has BMR drag bags, What d'ya think? within the GTO forums, part of the Vehicle Specific category; Like the drag bags and the install, dont like the fact they race my ass end on my sportlines . ...

Just curious if any of you have seen these bags work with lowered cars? For instance my gto has been lowered 1.5" in the front and 1" in the rear. The adds say that the bags will only work with factory springs. I called BMR and they told me that they should work with my Iabach springs but dont know for sure. Do any of you know? By the way I really need drag bags I cant get anything better than a 2.19 of the line with lots of wheel hop and cant break 13.00 w/ 412 rwhp-378tq SO I REEAAALLLY need to know if these things will fit.

Thanks guys

Works for me and I am running Sportlines which is a 1.7 drop and 1.8. It raises my ass end a little which I dont like but seems to keep me stiffer off the line. But if I was you I would look into L.C.A. and L.C.A. Relocation brackets since you have lowered the car and the geometry of the rear end has changed first... Thats just my two cents....

I have looked every where for these relocation brackets, were do I get some for my gto?

drag bags

They where not very hard to get in, but it took alittle time, I wire tied them to as small as I could and ppushed them throw the spring, I don't think they will ever come out, Don't do the same mistake I did, I cut the tubes to short so they just hang down passed the spring, I have them seperate, and when you go to race its a pane to keep going under to adjust them.

Yea no problem, I think you will really enjoy them and alot of us track guys use them. The hardest part is just getting the springs out, and then putting the bags in and hoses are very easy, dont use the "T" valve though use an independent valve for each hose. I use about 8 pounds in both but everyone has there own personal preferance.... good luck

I love em had them in car for 3 years,numbers speak for them selfs,to instll in the gto i cut the bottom bump stop with sawsaw ground smooth,take cap off bags squeeze all air out replace cap,not letting air back into then squeeze them into springs,i have them both on same line use 7psi my car is an auto.installed quite a few of these they work great,my 70 monte with the 540 efi/FI has them also.
